2011 Australian Baby Bonus News Site.

Are you better receiving the Australian Baby Bonus or do you get a better financial result with the Paid Parental Scheme. It can be complicated, see below for details.

How is the Baby Bonus paid?

The baby bonus will be cut from $5400 to $5000 from September 2012, and frozen at that level for a further three years, until then the Baby Bonus is paid per eligible child in 13 fortnightly instalments. From 1 July 2011, customers eligible to receive Baby Bonus will get a higher first instalment of $879.77 and 12 fortnightly instalments of approximately $379.77. The higher first instalment of Baby Bonus will assist with the upfront costs of having a new child.

Default Anyone ther?

Well I'm on about day 25 of my cycle which means AF could come any time now. It's a bit unpredictable but generally from day 26 to day 29 it could be here. I've already taken two pregnancy tests, both negative. My husband would be mad at me if he knew cos he doesn't want to see me hurt by negative tests but when or if AF arrives I will still be shattered. I don't know about anyone else but negative tests still leave me with a lot of hope, only AF destroys my little dream.
Is anyone else trying to conceive?
It seems I've been talking to myself a lot lately.

I was in the same boat, waiting AF waiting AF etc. When I had all but given up BINGO, there is still plenty of hope. I know it's hard but don't let it consume you 100% of the time, a little less stress could do the trick (I know, I hear you, easier said than done).
I enjoy your blogs and look forward to a happy ending!!!
